Watson and the Rhodesian Ridgeback

Watson and I took a walk today in Stromovka Park. It was the first time I have ever seen another dog make Watson tired! Near the end of our walk in the park Watson started playing with a Rhodesian ridgeback. Watson loves to play chase but usually dogs are too slow for Watson and he gets bored quickly. The ridgeback was very fast (he was taller than Watson too so had longer legs) and Watson had a blast chasing him around in a huge circle. I couldn't believe my eyes when Watson actually started to slow down and the ridgeback was still going. Watson started cutting off parts of the circle to keep up!! Eventually he just plopped down in a mud pit and I called him over to me so that we could head home. I was actually wondering if he was going to come or if he was too tired. He did come but he was definitely tired and he fell asleep as soon as we got home.

On a side note: On the way leaving the park I saw the strangest thing....a ferret on a leash being walked!
